Answer:


-2√(3) +2√(15)

Explanation:

When we simplify this equation, we have to multiply the numbers outside the parenthesis with the the numbers inside the parenthesis. In this equation, we have to multiply
√(12) by
-1 , getting the answer of
-√(12), which can be further simplified into
-2√(3). Next, looking at
√(12) ×
√(5), we get
√(60), which can also be simplified further into
2√(15). Now, adding up these two numbers get
-2√(3) +2√(15).
